I can remember alot of the familes that lived on this road.  Bumphreys, Laycock,  West, (they still live there) Cox,  Blogg, Deary, Hill, Falkard, Simpsons,Loveday,Davies.  I live in Stalham now and in my 70th year  as so many of those children would also be.  I have a website  if anyone is interested   to get touch with me . Thank you Elizabeth    Report
